Package: popularity-contest
Version: trunk

As configured in Debian, popularity-contest can miss sending reports. The day parameter specifies a day, but it is possible that a particular machine will be consistently asleep at that time. For example a machine in a 9-5 Monday-Friday office. Even if anacron is in place to run the script, the given DAY may have already passed.

A mixture of anacron and a change to the DAY="X" parameter would solve this, ensuring some randomness in the reporting, but not skipping out hearing from some classes of machines.

Hello, you did not reply, so I have to assume that they were addressed.

Thanks for your interest in popularity-contest,
